Medium red color. Great nose - garrigue, raspberry, iron and mesquite. On palate, full body yet great palate texture - medium acidity, integrated tannins and a very long finish. Beautiful red fruit on the palate - raspberry, strawberry with some nice earthy side notes. Beautiful wine. 94+

Decanted for 3-4h. Lovely nose of cedar and spices, a touch of tobacco. On the palate, sweet red fruit from the granache, balanced by more cedar, spices, pepper, tannins, and acidity in the long, peppery finish. Great with grilled rack of lamb and mint sauce.

Brought a Magnum of this to a large group party of German style cold cuts, cheese and breads. I only had one glass, but it was a huge hit with the entire group (12 of us). No formal notes. A lot of the comments were around how full bodied and big this wine tasted.
